Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the axle nut thread size, spline count, and compressed length against the removed part before installation. Confirm front left fitment on the Nissan Sentra and inspect related seals, hub components, and suspension hardware for wear. Because this axle includes an ABS tone ring, make sure the vehicle’s ABS configuration matches the listed application.
